Stable parameterization of continuous and piecewise-linear functions

Michaël Unser, Joaquim Gonçalves Garcia Barreto Campos, Alexis Marie Frederic Goujon

Rectified-linear-unit (ReLU) neural networks, which play a prominent role in deep learning, generate continuous and piecewise-linear (CPWL) functions. While they provide a powerful parametric representation, the mapping between the parameter and function s ...

Anomalies from the covariant derivative expansion

Timothy Cohen

We revisit the calculation of chiral anomalies for global and gauge symmetries in the framework of the covariant derivative expansion (CDE). Due to the presence of UV divergences, the result is an ambiguous quantity that depends on the regularization proce ...

Diagnosing weakly first-order phase transitions by coupling to order parameters

Jonathan D'Emidio

The hunt for exotic quantum phase transitions described by emergent fractionalized de-grees of freedom coupled to gauge fields requires a precise determination of the fixed point structure from the field theoretical side, and an extreme sensitivity to weak ...

Universality of loop corrected soft theorems in 4d

Biswajit Sahoo

In [1], logarithmic correction to subleading soft photon and soft graviton theorems have been derived in four spacetime dimensions from the ratio of IR-finite S-matrices. This has been achieved after factoring out IR-divergent components from the tradition ...

Exact quantum conformal symmetry, its spontaneous breakdown, and gravitational Weyl anomaly

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Anna Tokareva

The classical Lagrangian of the Standard Model enjoys the symmetry of the full conformal group if the mass of the Higgs boson is put to zero. This is a hint that conformal symmetry may play a fundamental role in the ultimate theory describing nature. The o ...

Nonperturbative Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetime

Kamran Salehi Vaziri

Quantum Field Theory(QFT) as one of the most promising frameworks to study high energy and condensed matter physics, has been mostly developed by perturbative methods. However, perturbative methods can only capture a small island of the space of QFTs. QFT ...

Effective Field Theories for New and Old Physics

Alfredo Glioti

Effective Field Theories have changed our understanding of Quantum Field Theories. This thesis shows several applications of this powerful tool in the context of the Standard Model and for searches of New Physics. The thesis starts with a review of the St ...

Semiclassical methods in conformal field theories scrutinized by the epsilon-expansion

Gil Badel

Conformal Field Theories (CFTs) are crucial for our understanding of Quantum Field Theory (QFT). Because of their powerful symmetry properties, they play the role of signposts in the space of QFTs. Any method that gives us information about their structure ...

Two-point functions and bootstrap applications in quantum field theories

Denis Karateev

We study two-point functions of local operators and their spectral representation in UV complete quantum field theories in generic dimensions focusing on conserved currents and the stress-tensor. We establish the connection with the central charges of the ...

Controlling superconductivity of CeIrIn5 microstructures by substrate selection

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Chunyu Guo, Maja Deborah Bachmann, Maarten Ruud van Delft, Joshua Alan Wolfe Straquadine

Superconductor/metal interfaces are usually fabricated in heterostructures that join these dissimilar materials. A conceptually different approach has recently exploited the strain sensitivity of heavy-fermion superconductors, selectively transforming regi ...

Advanced Phenomenology for Indirect New Physics Searches

Siyu Chen

Searching indirectly for physics beyond the standard model requires careful investigation of collider data and methodological advances that are the subject of this thesis. In the first part, we develop a multivariate analysis tool to compare data with the ...
